This is a bolt with a cylindrical head featuring a hexagonal socket.
Tightening is performed using a hex key (Allen wrench). Although classified as a bolt, it is most commonly used without a nut.
It is also known as a cap screw or socket screw.
Spanners and wrenches with jaws for tightening hex bolts require clearance space around the work area, whereas a hex key requires no such space.
For this reason, hex socket head cap screws enable work in confined spaces and allow for more compact machine designs.
Their appearance has also led to increasing use in decorative applications.
